Both green tea and wu yi tea are very good for the body. They each contain vitamins and nutrients that help to protect the body from harmful free radicals and help improve your cholesterol. Both tea products come from the same source but the difference is where and how they harvested.

Wu yi tea and green tea contain about the same concentration of caffeine. Studies have concluded that caffeine is good for preventing type two diabetes, colon cancer, and parkinsons disease. Caffeine is no longer being scrutinized like it was before. It is actually quite good for you.

Wu yi tea contains higher levels of polyphenols than green tea. This antioxidant is helpful in cleansing the body of harmful toxins. This process helps to reduce the risk of cancer, degenerative diseases, diabetes, osteoporosis, and many others.
